Little late guys! If you want to argue jurisdiction, that should have been the FIRST thing you did.
At a glance this looks like a subject matter jurisdiction objection (as distinct from personal jurisdiction), which is not waivable and can be raised at any time or sua sponte–so you can keep it in your pocket forever and raise it whenever you’re desperate, which seems to be the case here.
Edit: Looked at the motion, and that’s what this is. It doesn’t necessarily mean the motion is meritorious, but it’s timely.
Go away Hunter.
Dude… your knowingly broke the law. Just go to jail and serve your time.
Do convicted people not have the right of appeal now?
I couldn’t give less of a shit what happens to Hunter Biden, but this is pretty standard for someone facing prison time, isn’t it?
If you have the resources, yes.
As far as I know, you have the right to appeal even if you can’t afford a lawyer. Your appeal will just probably fail. But then Hunter’s appeal might fail. I’m not saying the justice system is fair, but this particular story seems like it would be something anyone in his situation would do.
Yeah, I was being flip. Everyone has the right, but having the right and exercising it are two different things.
I’m not going to pretend that if I were facing jail time and my lawyer said “this is another legal thing that can be done in the hopes of avoiding jail time” that I would say “I broke the law, I should just go to jail and serve my time.” I’d probably do the thing my lawyer said was an option.
But someone online is tired of seeing him in the headlines tho!
So you’re cool with all of trump’s delay tactics and legal loophole bullshit then?
This is a waste of money time and resources. It’s trying up a court system. He broke a law. He is guilty. He goes to fucking jail.
I mean fuck trump but he should be entitled to the same process as anybody else
He’s guilty. That’s not up for debate. At this point, it’s just fucking around with the legal system. No one should be entitled to that- It’s not an entitlement. It’s an abuse of the legal system and a waste of money.
No amount of repositioning the argument changes the fact that he broke a fucking law.
Period.
How did he break the law? This case has been set from the start that it is going to be used to drive gun restriction change. Either A, the form is unconstitutional, or B. It isn’t and gun restriction is completely legal.
Now if only we could get Trump to do the same damn thing.
Right? That would be wonderful.
I have to agree, politically motivated or not he needs to take the L and move on.
Right? Doing this shit doesn’t change the fact of what he did.
